Transferring to UVA, UNC similar...what do I need to do?

Transfer Students

<p>I messed up in high school and ended up graduating with a 3.41 thanks to a significant upward trend my last two years...</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I ended up at a college that I don't ever see myself becoming content with. I'll try to make peace with it, but in case I don't...</p>

<p>Right now I have 9 credit hours thanks to AP/IB and will be taking 17 this semester at a top 65ish public university. My planned major is in the business field, but this school doesn't really specialize in that area at all.
...anyway...</p>

<p>what type of grades do I need to earn this year in order to have a good shot at transferring to a UVA or UNC, maybe even Georgetown?? do I need a 4.0 to have a decent shot or would a 3.7ish suffice? I'll also probably have some solid (if unspectacular) extracurriculars. </p>

<p>I would have in-state status at UVA and I scored a 1340/2070 on the SAT and a 32 (36 reading, 35 english, 28 math, 28 science) on the ACT. UVA was the only one of these schools I applied to out of high school; I was rejected.</p>

<p>Thanks for any input.</p>

<p>3.7ish should be good enough for UVA (In-State) and UNC (<-state residency isn't a factor for transfer admissions), but not good enough if you're trying to get into their business schools.</p>

<p>For Georgetown MSB, the average accepted transfer GPA is between a 3.7-8, with an acceptance rate around 30%. I'd say with a 3.8+, you should be good.</p>
